Gun Tests Magazine Ammunition Testing Protocol
GunReports.com publishes the detailed ammo-testing protocol from Gun Tests magazine, the most commonly requested addition to Gun Tests coverage. Gun Tests' focus is on performance before the bullet hits the target. 'We realize that results from our test gun cant be extrapolated to every possible gun readers might own, we wanted to test ammunition in a fashion most consumers would be able to duplicate, and in fact, should conduct on their own. But our framework can potentially save you money and time by narrowing the list of candidates you might try in your own gun, and you can also follow our system to see if a given round performs for you like it did for us.

Gun Owners of America makes one final push against ObamaCare
(GunReports.com) From Gun Owners of America (GOA), a non-profit lobbying organization formed in 1975 to preserve and defend the Second Amendment rights of gun owners:
Write your representative one final time. Tell him to oppose the Senate-passed ObamaCare bill ... Remind him that, once Obama and Senate Democrats have gotten what they want, there is no incentive to ignore the Senate rules... You can use the Gun Owners Legislative Action Center to send a pre-written message.

CHESTER, Va. Carl Zeiss's new Victory NV 5.6x62 T* Night Vision Scope features a 2+ generation image amplifier tube with 20,000x light amplification, making it an ideal device for observation at night.

The Night Vision Scope also has integrated infrared LED illumination enables the user to brighten the immediate area. If long-distance observations are to be made under these conditions, a 1 flashlight equipped with an infrared filter can be attached to the night vision device using an adapter.
A range-estimation reticle is provided in the Victory NV Scope. It is designed for metric units of measurement.
Accessories include a 1 flashlight holder, camera adapter for SLR cameras for connection to the lens via M 55 x 0.75 filter thread, adapter for mini Maglite, a high-quality cordura bag, wrist strap, eyepiece cap, objective lens cover, and two AA batteries.
